The Spotlight Link

What is The Spotlight Link / The Spotlight Link Board?

The Spotlight Link is the quickest and easiest way for casting and production professionals to get their casting briefs into the in-boxes of leading UK agents and performers.

You will receive immediate suggestions in return, and be able to organise them all via the Spotlight website.

No faxing, no phoning, no chasing, no 'snail' mail - and you can use this service from any location with Internet access.

From January - September 2013 an average of 272 casting breakdowns were sent out each week via the Spotlight Link, of which 173 were Spotlight Exclusives. They span every type of performance work: from TV to dance, film to live events, commercials to musicals. These weekly breakdowns contained an average of 708 individual roles (jobs) of which 478 were Spotlight Exclusives. During the same period we saw an average of 211,503 CVs on the Spotlight website being reviewed every week.
